4 SAP Test Data Migration Server High-Quality Testing Requires High-Quality Test Data Peter Keller, Solution Management, SAP America, Inc. March 2012

8 Why buy this solution? SAP systems are becoming larger and more complex; therefore robust SAP change management processes are needed to prevent the introduction of errors SAP customers should leverage an SAP selective data copy tool to automate the selection & copying of a subset of data By introducing such a toolset, SAP customers can take pressure off the stretched Basis operations team SAP customers can leverage toolset to scramble and mask sensitive data Improved quality of test data and testing results Enabled repeatable process for refreshing nonproduction systems Reduced disk requirements by 65% Reduced system refresh time by 50% Reduced basis resource needs by 80% Increased refresh frequency by 65% Reduced hardware requirements Enabled resources to be utilized for innovation rather than manual system refresh activities Improved ability to provide data to the business faster and more accurately Improved test data in development allows us to catch defects earlier in the development cycle Enabled privacy settings for sensitive data Reduced bug-fixing cycle times Reduced the number of transports Improved availability of production data in development environment Helped create training environment based on specific data requirements Reduced database footprint from 25 TB to 3 TB in the non-production environments 2012 SAP AG.

9 Customer situation Business Requirements Reduce footprint of non-production environments Provide current data for development and test teams Protect sensitive data in test & training systems Refresh data in non-production environments quickly and efficiently Enable functional teams to extract and transfer data for troubleshooting & testing purposes Allow basis team to focus on core business activities Consider implementing a solution that helps you create and refresh lean and consistent development, testing, quality assurance, and training environments based on real business data SAP AG.

10 The solution With SAP TDMS you can Reduce data volume Provide current data Scramble/eliminate sensitive data Automate & reduce runtime of data refreshes Allow functional teams to transfer subsets of data Reduce workload of already strained basis team SAP Test Data Migration Server is a high-speed data extraction tool that populates your development, test, quality assurance, and training systems with SAP business data from your live productive environment SAP AG.

11 Benefits Improved Quality Of development, test, and training activities by using businessrelevant and up-to-date test data Increased Efficiency By reducing administrative efforts and time required to manage data in development and test systems Higher Flexibility Through capability to selectively refreshing single clients in SAP systems Reduced Infrastructure Expenditures By decreasing data volume in development, test, and training systems Reduction of Testing & Development Expenses Through outsourcing of test & development activities while keeping sensitive data protected and remaining legally compliant 2012 SAP AG.

12 Use cases I. Refresh of data in development systems II. Build lean project systems III. Build & flexibly refresh training systems IV. Build & easily refresh maintenance systems 2012 SAP AG. All rights reserved. 12

13 Use case example I. refresh of data in DEV systems Before SAP TDMS PR TB Full Copies With SAP TDMS PR TB Reduced copies 1.5 TB 1.5 TB 300 GB 300 GB TRN1 100 QA1 100 TRN1 100 QA1 100 No easy way to bring current data to DEV Selective data copies possible into DEV Stale data DEV GB Current data DEV1 100/ GB 2012 SAP AG. All rights reserved. 13

14 Use case example II. build lean project systems Client-dependent Transaction Data Client-dependent Master Data Client-dependent Configuration Step 2 Copy Client-dependent Configuration Data plus All Client-dependent Master Data WITHOUT Client-dependent Transactional Data (SAP TDMS Master Data & Customizing) & Apply Scrambling Routines (e.g. customer/vendor data) Client-dependent Transaction Data Client-dependent Master Data Client-dependent Configuration Client-independent Configuration Repository Step 1 Copy Repository and Client-independent Configuration Data (SAP TDMS Shell Creation) Client-independent Configuration Repository Goal: Provide a standardized approach to deliver project systems with only master and configuration data without transactional data SAP AG. All rights reserved. 14

15 Use case example III. build and flexibly refresh training systems PR TB QA GB Step 1: Reduced Copy 300 TRN 1.2 TB 301 Flexibility DEV1 100/ GB Step 2: Further reduced copy or 1:1 copy Goal: Provide a repeatable process to build and refresh training clients as subsets, full copies, and with flat file option for easy resetting activities SAP AG. All rights reserved. 15

16 Use case example IV. build & easily refresh maintenance systems Client-dependent Transaction Data Client-dependent Master Data Client-dependent Configuration Client-independent Configuration Repository Step 2 Copy subset of Client-dependent Master Data only (e.g. Material Master), or Client-dependent Transaction Data with corresponding Master Data (e.g. Sales Order) Step 1 Create new client in existing SAP system via Client Copy (Customizing Only), or run TDMS Master/Data Customizing scenario to bring existing source and target client in sync (Clientdependent Customizing) Client-dependent Transaction Data Client-dependent Master Data Client-dependent Configuration Client-independent Configuration Repository Goal: Provide a quick & easily-repeatable process for functional teams to transfer Master Data or Transaction Data for troubleshooting SAP AG.

18 Data reduction time slice scenario Assumption 80-90% of the production data is stored in 10-20% of client-dependent tables Data volume reduction In order to reduce the overall volume, only few tables need to be reduced All other tables (master and configuration data) are migrated entirely Customer-individual tables are transferred entirely or can be reduced via e.g. time criteria Some tables are excluded from transfer by default: E.g. change documents, user tables, etc. (customizable) Client DB Before data reduction Administration Data Configuration Data Master Data Transaction Data Client DB After data reduction (80%) Administration Data Configuration Data Transaction Data Master Data Storage Savings * Estimate based on project experience 2012 SAP AG.
